Daniel Radcliffe talks masturbating on Harry Potter set
Quote:
Daniel Radcliffe has opened up about growing up as the star of the movie franchise – going into A LOT of detail about some of his habits.
Describing himself as “an early starter”, the child star – who won this year’s Rear of The Year award – answered a little to honestly when asked about masturbating.
“I was like every other teenager in that sense. My favourite line about masturbation is Louis C.K.’s, something like ‘I found out about it when I was 11, and I didn’t skip a day’.
“I think I started very early — before my teens. But not when I was on set.”
However, he was sure to point out that he chose his moments very carefully indeed.
He added: ‘I wasn’t going, ‘When is Alan Rickman going to nail this scene so I can run back to my trailer?’
“There’s another feeling, again perfectly described by Louis C.K.: ‘that fear just after you’ve jerked off that everyone knows what you did.’
“It would have been embarrassing to walk back on set and look the dignitaries of British acting royalty in the eye, knowing what I’d been doing.’
